Schulich Law Runnymede Society Secession Debate: Alberta Bound 鈥� Secession or Subversion?
Alberta鈥檚 separatist movement has gained momentum with the province lowering its referendum petition threshold to just 10%.

The debate will take place between Queen's University Professor of Law and Schulich School of Law Professor , and will be moderated by Runnymede National Director .
The Resolution:
Alberta鈥檚 pursuit of separation from Canada is constitutionally permissible under Reference re Secession of Quebec [1998], but unjustified due to its impact on federalism and Indigenous treaty rights.
